Mechanical Design Engineering Team Lead

About pplwise pplwise is a recruiting consultancy for fast-growing technology companies across Europe. Through Recruiting as a Service and Executive Search, we fill key roles for our clients, from start-ups to publicly listed companies. We are filling this position for our client Filics. About our client: Filics Filics is reinventing intralogistics with autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) that change how material moves. Its double-runner system makes Filics the first and only AMR that can drive through load carriers such as Euro pallets. This breaks with forklift logic and sets a new standard for efficiency. Filics is a small, hands-on team that solves hard problems with engineering excellence. Leadership goes to those who take initiative and consistently deliver. As Senior Mechanical Design Engineer (m/f/d) at Filics, you will lead the mechanical design of the robots as they move from prototype to series production. About the role This is an on-site/hybrid role in Munich, close to engineering and assembly. Filics builds its own robot hardware in-house: mechanics, electronics and software. Orders are growing, and the robots are moving from prototypes to series production. Designs that worked in the lab now need to be built reliably, at scale and at the right cost. The hardest problems often sit between disciplines: parts that work on their own can fail once they're assembled with the electronics. The mechanical team has four engineers, most of them at the start of their careers
